Newberry Trail Report – 02/20
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump – 02/20
I went for a ride yesterday to grand marais. The trail was good until we got outside of grand marais. There’s less snow by town. I think getting in and out of town will be bad in a day or two
It’s spring riding conditions. Towns will be hard to get in and out of. Your best bet will be to trailer and ride from the better areas
If you want to do 200 to 300 miles a day might not be your time. If you want to cruise around you’ll be fine. If it was me I would take seasonal roads and fire lanes
Get some ice scratchers they will help a ton. We are still getting cold nights so things will be set up hard
Plenty of parking here for anyone that needs it. Stay in town and come ride out here..

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association – 02/19
Winter came back in force this weekend. Lake affect areas saw 14 to 18 inches by Sunday Night. We groomed 45 to CR500, 9/2 South to Eppoufette, and 9 North to Holland Lake staging area. 9 gets a little thin as you get closer to Newberry.
The gates on 45 are still closed going into the falls as well as into Paradise.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Mixed precipitation, mainly of rain and snow, will spread west to east across the UP tonight into tomorrow morning. Pockets of freezing rain could also mix in at onset and lead to a light glaze of ice on roadways for the Tuesday morning commute. Heavy lake effect snow will then be reinvigorated with a secondary cold front Tuesday night into Wednesday morning across the N and NW wind snow belts. This will combine with northerly winds of 40 to 50 mph, resulting in blowing snow and near zero visibilities for the Wednesday morning commute. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaMixed precipitation, mainly of rain and snow, will spread west to east across the UP tonight into tomorrow morning.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> ⚠️So my wife and I and a couple friends went out to check the trail and get some lunch so I found a couple water holes on trail 9 about 3/4 of a mile off of M123 just slow down they are only 4 inches deep you don’t need to fly though them in the picture you can see my ski in the water that’s the deepest spot so please slow down and take it easy also some of the guys staying at our place got stuck on 45 past the falls I was told the gate was closed over there but they said it was open just be aware that is dangerous over there please do not open gates the people that run their clubs know when to open the gates, so please do not touch them for your safety as well as others.. #newberry #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> The week starts out dry today with temperatures climbing above freezing across the UP. The next system brings a mix of rain and snow on Tuesday before temperatures turn sharply colder Tuesday night, followed by a round of potentially heavy lake effect snow in the north wind snow belts on Wednesday. Quieter weather on Thursday then gives way to another chance of snow with the next system on Friday. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaThe week starts out dry today with temperatures climbing above freezing across the UP.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Good morning from Windy Corners ❄️☀️
Fresh snow overnight and the trails are looking chef’s kiss to start the week!
Nothing beats a snowy Monday in the UP. Where is your week taking you? #newberry #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> It's noon here on Monday, January 12th, and this week does present a couple instances of lake effect snow throughout the week. As a preliminary first call for the entire week, we've displayed current odds at areas receiving more than 4" of snow based on data from medium range models, and the WPC.
Most of the lake effect snow for the UP will fall between Tuesday and Thursday, where much of the higher elevation areas along Lake Superior currently have a greater than 50% chance at 4" of snow by the end of the work week. For much of the LP, lake effect snow will be confined primarily to Lake Michigan and Lake Huron, especially AFTER Wednesday heading into Thursday. We are keeping an area of 1-20% across much of southern and central Michigan in the event wind shifts or passing clippers allow for extra accumulation, but the greatest chances for 4" will be in the far southwest corner, the thumb, or your typical lake effect zones across northern lower Michigan.
We have lake effect snow forecasts coming all week, along with other forecasts for other weather phenomena such as wind, rain, and perhaps mixed precipitation.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via North Store Follow Me Outfitters >> Beautiful day in Windy Corners at North Store.. #newberry #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 1-11-26
Around 4 inches of snow last night. I see the groomers all made it out. I would guess the trails should freeze up flat now.
I would imagine it will be lower traffic during the week. It would be a pretty good week to ride if you can sneak away! #newberry #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Quieter weather settles in across the U.P. today as lingering snow showers tapering off this morning. A weak clipper system will bring another round of light snow tonight, but only expect another inch or so of accumulation in most locations. After another quiet day on Monday, another system brings a mix of rain and snow to the area on Tuesday. #miweather #keweenaw #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaQuieter weather settles in across the U.P. today as lingering snow showers tapering off this morning.
